Those who don't leave are "STUCK ON STUPID"!!!! I've never been through one, don't EVER want to go through one. Please get out those who are thinking of staying. Even if it drops to a 3, you're looking at massive damage potential.(BTW, if it does lose some punch can we blame that on W's environmental policies???? Just a thought.)
Remember Mitch??? That's what I think of when I see this.My aunt and cousin were caught in Honduras and didn't think they would survive. they did thankfully but the devestation.....
DON'T MESS WITH THIS ONE---TAKE CARE GULF COAST!!!!!
Rita is gonna be a bitch but we will survive.
I've been through one, back in 1985 (Gloria). It was weak and created almost no damage to my locale, but it was the scariest and longest weather night of my life.
